Dan + Shay have a way of penning lyrics that resonate deeply with their fans - their simplistic style yet intricate melodies allow their audience members to instantaneously relate to their lyrics. The first lines of the introductory verse of their latest song paint a portrait of an individual who is no longer in denial about their recent heartbreak, as it states:

I can honestly understand why it's overI can go through the motions of walking away I can give you the key and take my things back I can find plenty things to fill my days

However, the transition from this style of nonchalant writing to an explosive chorus definitely stands out in the crowd, as the lyrics go on to say;

But I don't know how not to think about you When it's late at night and cryingAnd I know that I ought to be the one who is strong and just moves onBut I probably turn down your road, knock-knock on your doorFall back in your arms, wake up in the morningHating myself for the way that I can't help the way I still want youI just don't know how not to.

You can absolutely hear the emotion throughout this entire piece, as if the artists are both crying out their sentiments. Dan + Shay are definitely moving up the musical ladder - stay tuned for their new releases in the future.
